CME Information

Program Target Audience: This program is designed for an international audience of general anesthesiologists, researchers, anesthesiologists with a special interest in clinical pharmacology and technology.

Objectives of the Program: After attending this program you should be able to:

1. Appreciate the immediate opportunities for the advancement of clinical pharmacology as well as potential threats.

2. Effectively recognize the use and utility of new and upcoming pharmacologic receptors including VX-548, a selective NaV1.8 channel blocker.

3. Understand the potential importance of pharmacogenomics in the delivery of effective perioperative care. 

4. Consider the pros, cons, and nuances of the use of opioid-free analgesia in clinical practice.

5. Evaluate the best practices for analgesia for knee pain for the general populations and armed forces.

6. Comprehend the pharmacologic basis of chemotherapy-associated peripheral neuropathy.

7. Reflect on the contributions of outstanding clinical pharmacologists to perioperative care.

Practice Gaps
• Anesthesiologists require balanced information to understand and make decisions regarding the use of opioids for analgesia in the perioperative arena.

• Learning about the use of new selective receptors and pharmacogenomics in perioperative care allows for the expansion of therapeutic and research strategies.

• Understanding the best practices for the treatment of knee pain in a diverse and complex patient population helps to improve anesthetic practice.

Educational Needs
• Providing unbiased assessment and education for clinicians.

• Provide insight into future possibilities for improved clinical performance in anesthetic drug titration.
